Reform Judaism: A Tradition of Inclusiveness  

"We are an inclusive community, opening doors to Jewish life to people of all ages, to varied kinds of families, to all regardless of their sexual orientation, to gerim [strangers], to those who have converted to Judaism, and to all individuals and families, including the intermarried, who strive to create a Jewish home.

We believe that we must not only open doors for those ready to enter our faith, but also to actively encourage those who are seeking a spiritual home to find it in judaism."

--A Statement of pirnciples for Reform Judaism,
Adopted at the 1999 Pittsburgh Convention of the Central Conference of American Rabbis
